Only a Few Days Left

After what happened with Gladiolus, I made sure that I did not go anywhere without a companion. William has been glued by my side ever since then. There were times that we coincidentally bump into Gladiolus in hall ways but so far he didn't do anything like the last time.

'Oh my! I would have never thought he would do such a thing to you.' My mother said telepathically.

Since Gladiolus arrived in the palace, my mother and I were playing it safe just in case. She maintained her act even when I was in her quarters visiting her.

'I am not sure why he is so obsessed with me.' I told her.

'It is because of our family's act of intermarriage. They believe that our magic powers will lessen if our blood were to be mixed with people of not royalty.' Mother sighed.

'Has he been coming here to visit you?' I asked.
